Recovering Survivors from Super Typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda, Battered by Another Strong Typhoon Hagupit/Ruby
The propulsion of survivors to recover from devastation caused by deadly typhoon Haiyan in November 8, 2013 have been hampered by the landfall of another strong typhoon Hagupit on Saturday, December 6, 2014 that, until today wroth havoc to properties and livelihood of thousands of families in Eastern Visayas and other regions in the Philippines hardly hit by the wild catastrophe.
“Our surviving brothers and sisters have already been in the momentum of striving to recuperate from the loss of lives, properties and livelihood claimed by super typhoon Haiyan/Yolanda, but now typhoon Ruby relentlessly thwarted it,” lamented by Rev. Levi Lou Amora, Program Coordinator of the East Visayas Jurisdictional Area of the United Church of Christ in the Philippines.
“The vast devastations were in those areas located along the sea cost that has been battered by the combination of strong wind, heavy rain and storm surge,” added Rev. Levi Lou.
“Most likely, majority if not all of our on-going rehabilitation projects in the ground might be partly and/or totally damaged. Particularly, the newly repaired roofing of the structure where EVJA-UCCP office is located has flown away by the storm. It would cost another sacrifice of labor and resources to replace the destroyed structure,” remarked the Pastor.
The initial report thru GMA 7 news, from the Philippine Red Cross, confirmed 23 casualties as of December 8, 2014, eight o’clock in the evening yesterday in all affected areas throughout the Philippines. The 21 casualties out of 23 are from Eastern Samar.
However, historical experience proved that while the unfortunate reality of pain and suffering resulting from nature’s wrath, such as typhoons, storm surge, flash flood, earthquakes, tidal waves, and the like adversely frustrates life’s aspirations and hope, it does not put an end to the people’s resiliency to positively face and embrace a bright future beyond challenging calamities!
Last night’s television report showed typhoon survivors young and old still have the heart and voice to sing Christmas songs expressing their joy and “hope against all hopes!” Some pictures of devastation by strong typhoon

“As the storm quieted down, we’ll go down to the ground, to the local churches and communities not only for ocular survey and data gathering on the impact of typhoon Hagupit/Ruby, but to proclaim hope of life amidst and beyond disaster by God’s eternal mercy and grace,” assured Bishop Jaime Moriles, Area Bishop of the East Visayas Jurisdiction, UCCP. “This is another cataclysm that moves our faith to respond collectively and appropriately aimed at upholding life’s dignity of hapless survivors from pain, suffering and lose of life, properties and livelihood. With this, we humbly appeal our sisters and brothers here and abroad of your prayers and support,” concluded Bishop Moriles.
